Patent GB-2320818-A (GB)
Title: Hand machine tool with separately cooled commutator
Inventor: HEESS STEFAN
IPC: B24B55/00
Filed: 1997-12-03
Abstract: To prevent dust from damaging the commutator 24 of motor 18 in a hand machine tool 10, it is shielded from the main cooling air flow by surrounding baffles 28, 30. An impeller 31 draws in air 38 through lateral slots 17 in the machine end housing 16, so that it flows axially through the machine. When the air reaches baffle 28 positioned perpendicularly to the flow, it is deflected so that about 90% of the air continues to flow axially, along baffle 30, to the rotor 20 of the motor. The rest of the air passes through a small notch 40 in baffle 28 to the commutator and brushes 22. The majority of the dust entrained in the air remains in the main air stream which flows to the motor, and so the commutator is protected. The main air stream also produces a vacuum effect within the commutator chamber, further improving the passage of air to the commutator. The air exits through exhaust slots 35. The notch 40 may additionally serve as a cable duct.

Title: Carrying speech-band signals over power lines
Inventor: WILLIAMS ROY LESLIE
IPC: H04B3/54
Filed: 1998-03-13
Abstract: A method of transmitting speech-band signals such as voice telephony and facsimilie over a power line communications system comprises receiving speech-band signals at a communications station e.g. in a customer premises equipment, digitising them, and encoding them into data packets and transmitting them over a part of the line which is external to the premises using a packet data communications protocol. With the use of data packets, a mix of speech and data from a number of different subscribers may be carried in a switched manner. The packet data protocol may use polling, token-passing or CSMA. Power line transmission systems may be linked with other systems e.g. PSTN and Internet. The apparatus instead of using an A/D or D/A converter uses a speech by data module which in response to an analog signal selects an appropriate digital message for transmission and vice versa. Equipment may selectively route the speech-band signals via the power lines or the PSTN.

Title: Recombinant bacteriophage,method for producing and selecting it and its use for heterologous transformation of a host bacillus
IPC: C12N15/75
Filed: 1981-01-01
Abstract: A recombinant bacteriophage, a method for producing and selecting the recombinant bacteriophage and a method for heterologous cloning of DNA are disclosed. The recombinant bacteriophage is produced by ligating genetic fragments encoding a desired genetic trait with DNA from a bacteriophage, incubating with DNA from a second Bacillus microorganism prototrophic for a growth requirement, incubating with a host Bacillus auxotrophic for the growth requirement. Transformed host Bacillus are selected by growing the mixture on a growth medium which does not contain the growth requirement and determining the presence of the genetic trait. The recombinant bacteriophage containing the desired genetic trait is recovered from the host Bacillus by induction. Heterologous cloning can be accomplished by incubating a host Bacillus with the recombinant bacteriophage.
